Come Fill up Your Glasses

歌詞

Come fill up your glasses with whiskey and beer And drink a full glass to a happy new year To our sisters and brothers, and may they live long So lift up your glasses and join in this song So we'll fill up your glasses and drink once again To peace on earth and good will among men Long life to the miners the whole world around Who spend their days in a hole underground Whose road is a tunnel, whose day is the night Out of danger and darkness they bring light Our thanks too the fishermen and safe may they toil And also to the farmer who turns up the soil To the ploughmen and shepherds and all men of worth Whose joy is to harvest the fruits of the earth Here's to the drivers and firemen and the rest of the team Who keep the stock rolling by diesel and steam To the cleaners and shunters who work night and day And the track laying gangs on the permanent way A toast to the casual laboring man Who lives where his work is, who works where he can To the builders and spidermen and bold engineers May your wages keep rising, lads, over the years To the writers and artists, then, let's drink a health To people whose hopes, and whose dreams are our wealth Whose tools are but canvas or paper and pen Whose harvest is the future and the progress of men Let the men drink a health to their sweethearts and wives And the ladies, being willing, will greet them likewise May your pleasures be many, your troubles bu few May you treasure the day you made one out of two Let's drink to our children and let us prepare A world where they'll live free from sorrow and care A world where goodwill among men is the law A world without fallout, a world without war
